It’s not often you get something for nothing, but that’s exactly what Virgin Media is offering right now. The telecoms provider has just confirmed that customers with TV packages will get a swathe of premium channels for this month and not have to a pay a penny extra. The incentive even includes a popular Sky service. So what’s free and how do you get it?
The update, which lasts throughout October, offers full access to channels including Sky Kids, Cartoon Network and Baby TV.
That means homes will be able to tune into content such as Pip and Posy’s Spooktacular Party (Sky Kids), The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball (Cartoon Network), SpongeBob SquarePants (Nickelodeon), and Peppa Pig without facing the usual subscription fees.
Virgin says it has launched the freebie in time for the October half-term.
To make things even better, Virgin also says customers will be able to tune in on the move as well as at home. That will be perfect for those long car journeys over the holiday period.
That service is available via the Virgin TV Go app.
Speaking about the update, David Bouchier, Chief TV and Entertainment Officer at Virgin Media O2, said: “We know half term and school holidays can be a juggle for families, and keeping the kids entertained – without a hefty price tag – isn’t always easy.
That’s why we’re offering a helping hand and giving our Kids TV channels to all customers throughout October at no extra cost. Whether it’s content on Sky Kids, Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network or Baby TV, our children’s TV line up offers something for all ages.”
As a quick guide to the savings this offer makes. Sky Kids is £8 per month when buying directly from Sky.
